Guest Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Hi all, I'm new to this forum and hope you can help, I'm not sure if this question is in the correct place! We need to run a DBS check for a volunteer and I'm not sure how to start the ball rolling. In the past we have always had the person complete a paper copy of the EY2 and post it to Ofsted, however, I understand that you can no longer do this and must apply on-line, however, we don't appear to have received any information on this and I can't find any information on-line. Is there a link I can go onto to request a check? We use TMGCRB for our staff checks, but they don't do volunteers. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel10 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Hi We use capita and have recently carried out a staff volunteer check with them. You do need to register first with them but quite simple to do. But if you talking about a committee volunteer this is different and still with ofsted but now online.

Stargrower Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 We use TMG too and yes, they do volunteers. We don't pay anything for volunteer checks. Google 'online disclosures' and you will find them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

finleysmaid Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 this is the quote from tmg received yesterday!!!! The fees currently are £74.00 for a member staff including the government fee of £44.00 and admin charge of £30.00. Volunteer applications cost only the admin charge of £30.00 as they are free from the government charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargrower Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 TMG must've put their prices up recently as I paid £62.00 for staff and nothing for volunteer only last month... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
